The UnitiQute 2 all in one audio player however isn't just good: it's a brilliant-sounding, uniquely versatile, seductively compact and, of course, irresistibly cute example of what contemporary music in the home is all about. Music downloads, high-resolution music files, internet radio, network music, UPnP servers, iPod\/MP3 players - everything that the new era of music delivery can throw at it, UnitiQute 2 can play. Revitalised for 2013, UnitiQute 2 improves upon the performance of its predecessor with enhanced sound quality and Multiroom functionality. High-resolution 24bit\/192kHz streaming capability and a DAB\/DAB+ tuner now also come as standard. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMusic for everyone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eJust like NaimUniti 2, its multi-award-winning sibling, UnitiQute 2 is right at the forefront of modern music delivery technology, and its significance for music enthusiasts of all aspirations is far greater than the simple sum of its component parts. For the committed enthusiast with an existing Naim setup, UnitiQute 2 can not only deliver exceptional Naim music-making as a second system, but also play the role of gateway to all the new digital music delivery formats - from USB memory sticks, UPnP streaming to internet radio. For the more casual listener, UnitiQute 2 can take the place of both the old hi-fi system and the iPod dock, sound far better than either, and at the same time introduce new worlds of audio ripe for exploration. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSmall box... Big on features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor starters, UnitiQute 2 includes a preamplifier with two analogue inputs, five 24bit\/192kHz-capable digital inputs and all the traditional Naim musical clarity and transparency. Next, UnitiQute 2 includes a muscular power amplifier that provides all the rhythmic punch and definition you would expect from Naim. You want conventional radio? Well, UnitiQute 2 includes FM and DAB\/DAB+ tuners that get the best possible performance from either format. UnitiQute 2 is happy also to play music from an iPod or MP3 player via its front panel-mounted USB socket. The USB audio connection is digital so iPod sound quality is optimised, and Apple authenticated too so compatibility is seamless. And the same USB socket can be used to play music files in almost any format at up to 24bit\/192kHz resolution straight from a memory stick. And it doesn't end there. A network Ethernet socket and integrated Wi-Fi means that, along with everything else, UnitiQute 2 can easily tap into Internet radio or UPnP servers, a Naim HDX for example, to drop almost unlimited music choices right into your lap. Talk about cute.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEasy access to your music\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBringing everything audio, digital and analogue together is one thing, but making it all work seamlessly together is something else entirely. UnitiQute 2 is controlled by a dedicated remote handset in combination with a large, clear display. The UnitiQute 2 user interface borrows the principles of intuition and accessibility, and much of the substance, from the already proven NaimUniti 2 interface. The interface is clear, intuitive, uncluttered and makes light work of access to the remarkable versatility and performance of UnitiQute 2. And the n-Stream app for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch will enhance the experience still further and raise its brilliance yet another notch.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMultiroom \u0026amp; Party Mode\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs well as being a high-end standalone streaming system, UnitiQute 2 opens up the possibility of multiroom hi-fi. Connected to other Naim streaming products over the home network, it can act as the ‘Master’ or ‘Client’ streaming product in a multiroom system which will get the party started and play music in Naim quality in every corner of your home.

And if you don't like the idea of running network cables around the house, don't worry. UnitiQute 2 can do all this wirelessly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-format Radio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe UnitiQute 2 multi-format tuner can switch seamlessly between DAB\/DAB+, FM and internet radio stations.

On the analogue side, the UnitiQute preamplifier module is a distilled version of that found in its NaimUniti 2 sibling. Similarly, and again, as with the NaimUniti 2, the UnitiQute 2 power amplifier borrows its design from the NAIT 5i, so the music it makes is dynamic, tuneful and addictive.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnitiQute 2 digital audio performance profits immeasurably from nearly two decades of high-end digital audio knowhow and experience at Naim. From the first CD player, the CDS in 1991, to the stunning DAC-V1 digital to analogue converter of 2013, every Naim digital product has advanced the art of digital audio engineering to the benefit of music reproduction. UnitiQute 2 is no different.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnitiQute 2 is capable of handling an enormous range of digital audio formats, and Naim digital audio engineering ensures that each one sounds as musical and engaging as its inherent potential allows. UnitiQute 2 digital connectivity also means that as well as offering all-in-one functionality operating as a digital hub for external digital sources, games consoles or digital TV audio for example, it can also output its internal sources or external digital signals to an external DAC for even higher audio quality.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAnalogue audio connectivity is not forgotten either. Two analogue inputs can accommodate CD players or portable music players via rear panel phono sockets and a front-panel mini-jack. And a preamplifier output means that with the addition of an external power amplifier, or even a sub-woofer, UnitiQute 2 can become the heart of a very wide bandwidth audio system. And when you want to listen privately, a front panel headphone socket makes such selfishness all too easy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUPnP-enabled for playback of network-stored audio \/ internet broadcasts from PC, Mac or NAS drives\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMulti-format radio (FM, DAB\/DAB+, Internet)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFront-panel USB for iPod\/MP3 player and USB memory stick playback\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eApple authenticated enabling digital output from iPod\/iPhone for ultimate quality\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eiPod\/iPhone control, charging and front-panel content display when connected to front-panel USB port via standard Apple connectorFull Naim Multiroom functionality including Party Mode\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e3.5mm front panel input that supports both analogue and digital sources\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTwo analogue inputs (3.5mm front-panel socket and RCA)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOnboard DAC with five 24bit\/192kHz capable S\/PDIF inputs for external digital sources\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePreamplifier and 45W per channel into 4Ohm, 30W per channel into 8O ohm power amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEthernet and Wi-Fi network connectivity\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePlays WAV, FLAC, Apple Lossless (ALAC), MP3, Windows Media-formatted content and AAC from any suitable UPnP device \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSwitchable bass contour control for low-volume listening\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBass management system for use with subwoofer-satellite loudspeaker systems Digital output on 75Ohm BNC connector (RCA adapter supplied)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFront-panel display with intuitive interface, remote-controlled\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFront-panel 3.5mm headphone output Front panel logo touch-sensitive mute function\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003evTuner 5* full service internet radio service\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLinear Power supply with 200VA toroidal transformer with three separate windings\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSeparate power supplies for digital, analogue, and power amplifier Ground selector switch for optimum performance\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHigh quality Burr Brown DAC \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNaim compact, non-resonant, non-magnetic case\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOLED display for high contrast\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Naim","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49950435541349,"sku":"UNITIQUTE 2","price":3695.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/trutone.ca\/products\/naim-unitiqute-2","provider":"Trutone Electronics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
